It's absolutely the best luxury car interior you can possibly buy. OMGEE.

Nothing is better IMO. I need a Flying Spur done up like this please.

The attention to detail is nothing less than absolutely amazing. Yet still, once a huge fan of the current Bentley interiors, I find myself questioning whether it's all "a bit too much".

I guess I've just got caught up in those new-fangled screen dominated interiors. I'm liking that of the new S-Class more and more. And that of the Porsche Taycan really impresses me as well. "Less can be more" kind of guy, I reckon.

Just imagine how good you would feel driving this though. I just can't imagine it.

Bentley to become electric-only car maker
Bentley - the world’s largest producer of 12-cylinder engines - will ditch them all and switch to pure electric power only by the end of the decade

"Bentley's move to electric won't be binary" says CEO | Auto Express

Brand’s switch to fully electric cars won’t happen overnight, with petrol power still very much in the frame short term

Much indicates that the Porsche, Audi and Bentley brands will become increasingly intertwined in the course of the "electric future". The variable ride-height VAG corporate PPE electric toolkit will find applications within the parameters of the three brands-and perhaps Lamborghini as well. Porsches' Maycan EV will be the platforms first recipient. Audi will follow suit with up to three applications (low ride height A5-sized BEV sedoupe, the codename "Landjet" luxury car ( aka eTron 9 whether low or medium ride height has not yet been publicly disclosed) and quite possibly a high rideheight electric Q7 successor). Porsche will introduce PPE-based successors to the current Panamera and Cayenne. The Conti GT/Flying Spurs' electric successors will feature the low ride height PPE platform-yet will follow a new elevated ride height SAC sedoupe model line and the PPE-platformed Bentayga II.

Is Audi's Artemis project and Landjet synonymous?

I can see the transition to all-electric happening then. One of Bentley's appeal is that your can do a cross-continental journey in is absolute luxury. If the trajectory continues with battery capacity and range, it looks achievable by then when they go all-electric.

The "Landjet" will be the first product introduced under the Artemis project (in late 2023/early 2024). Artemis encompasses the research & developement of efficient solutions pertaining to electric mobility, spanning from electronics (hard & software)/digitalization through production processes, logistics, marketing, optimization of supply chains, artificial intelligence among other factors. Artemis will be conducted under Audis' stewardship, but will be implemented by all VAG brands and initially involve the larger PPE/J1 toolkits and later trickle down into the MEB platforms (and the evolutions/derivatives thereof).

Yeah-the accuracy is highly questionable. Yet still, it's a cool interpretation of what the Conti GTs' PPE-platformed electric successor could look like:

I like it overall, though I am still on the fence regarding having the headlights encroach into the "grille" like that.

BTW, is it still considered a grille if it's just a panel since it's not really responsible for any cooling or air flow?
